You may be correct about the similarity.<BR/><BR/>I don't mind purling either, and the outer border pattern is already written with purl rows, but that's easily converted. I want to swatch it and see what it looks like first.fleeglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06348327363198905898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463307798012270911.post-18123233123462657412007-02-28T11:59:00.000-05:002007-02-28T11:59:00.000-05:00I've done exactly that when working shawl borders,...I've done exactly that when working shawl borders, and it works a treat.

I've only done a little Orenburg stuff, so maybe I'm remembering incorrectly.<BR/><BR/>It honestly doesn't bother me to purl a whole long round, even it it's 500+ sts.
